Greetings!


What is that, you ask? Why it is none other than a delicious chocolate biscotti given to me by my supervisor. This particular biscotti is from Florence, as she just returned from Italy. 

I decided to enjoy it with one of my obsession/addictions: Good Earth tea (original, caffeine free)


INGREDIENTS
Red rooibos, chicory root, natural flavors, rosehips, cinnamon, lemongrass, peppermint, papaya, chamomile, panax ginseng leaves, anise seed, dandelion root, ginger root, orange oil and orange peel. Contains no sugar, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. A natural source of antioxidants.





and each little bag has a nice quote on it. how sweet. 


So I drink this tea like multiple times a day, it is so delicious. I never knew about it until about 9 months ago, the intern who used to share my desk with me on Mondays left me a little bag of treats when she was packing up her stuff. So of course I slowly drank my way through a few random chamomile and other herbal teas, until I stumbled upon this beauty, and then proceeded to stock up for the apocalypse lest they EVER STOP MAKING IT!


If you like spiced things, you will like this tea. Sometimes it gets a bit strong if I leave it in way too long, but I sort of have it down to a science how I prepare it with the hot water spout at work (FIrst I put in 1-2 inches of cold water so I can drink it as soon as its steeped… really, its a sad ritual…)


So… sensory revelation today is is enjoying my cinnamon crack with some lovely biscotti!


and… how was it, you ask? 


Well, I’d really like to say it was the best biscotti I”ve ever had. But alas, it tasted just like any other cocoa flavored biscotti. Which is not to say it wasn’t a great mid morning treat, but the miracle italian caffe biscotti was mostly in my delusion, which played out similar to a cheeseball Maxwell House commercial or similar. 


In my head, I was in bella tuscany. In real life, I was catching up on three days of work from my time in a similar haze with the flu. It is possible I am still delirious.


Ta!
